As to the last two items (re: TSA protocol spreading to buses and trains and having to have a license to grow plants in your backyard)
1) TSA protocols spreading. Vanishingly improbable. The problem with airplanes is not just that you can kill the people on the plane, you can kill a lot of people on the ground. Most of the dead on 9/11 were on the ground, not on the airplanes.
2) Once again, you are buying into a right-wing fantasy that has as much to do with real law as Star Wars has to do with real science--meaning none-at-all. Provided that you aren't trying to SELL your vegetables you won't have to have a license to grow vegetables. If, however, you are trying to SELL your vegetables then you would--and SHOULD--be required to have a license just as any other food-seller would. Why? Because if we exempt *you* then we have to exempt the next larger size seller, and the next one, and the next one, and the one after that. Eventually, you have a company the size of Monsanto, growing vegetables and no longer having to worry about pesky things like food safety. Is that what you want?
There's a real world out there, popcorn, and real world has facts about it. Those facts are not up for contention--interpretation of those facts, sure. Your opinions about those facts, certainly. But not the facts themselves.
